xdvi uses the map file ps2pk.map. Let's see what map files there are on
your computer and whether or not they contain the right entry. Please
send us the output of

egrep  ec-lmr12 $(kpsewhere ps2pk.map)


My guess is that you have a map file in ~/.texmf-var/ that you haven't
updated since the new lmodern was installed. In that case, the first
question is if you really need that map file (ie, you have fonts
installed in ~/texmf), or if it there by accident (calling updmap
instead of updmap-sys). If you do need that, you ought to call
update-updmap and updmap (with options suitable for your installation).
